Spherical Olives and Top Chef Fabio?s Beef Carpaccio Recipe!

Posted the 04/12/2008 08:51:37 By Savory Tv (Visit website)






Fully obsessed with Season 5 of Bravo’s Top Chef, tonight we became equally fully obsessed with Fabio’s “Spherical Olives”. What are they and what gives them their outside shell and liquid center? After a quick visit with Google, we found this video from the genius chef Ferran Adria from El Bulli restaurant in Spain, where he demonstrates to Mark Bittman his special science to create the magical olives.


Chef Fabio recreated these mysterious gems in his winning beef carpaccio recipe, and Lee Anne from the French Culinary Institute in NYC shows us how in this video.





For the full recipe, and some interesting comment reading including where to find the ingredients, view the Bravo Tv page here.


We also found an interesting post here from the chefs at the Ideas in Food blog, where they discuss encapsulation, play with chemicals, and create yogurt orbs. Is this type of food preparation natural? Not really. Is it fun and incredibly creative? Absolutely!
